That discovery has now been made in the Patent Antibilious Pills of the Rev.

SIXPENCE. - TO THE EDICOR OF fug SUN. SIR, The gentlerhanly liberality of sentiment which . uniformly distinguishes your Publication, induces me to send.you an Extra& from .t he Asiatic Annual Register, of 1803, detailed the particulars of the cattle "of Assye, gained by the gallant Sir Arthur Wellesley, over -the Mahratta Chieftain ScindiA. Independently of the interest which the Public must take at the present moment in the article it self, it is more than ordinarily necessary now to give it publicity, as it dire&ly tends to obviate the prejudices which the gross and shameful misrepre sentations of that brilliant affair, in a Morning Paper of Friday last, might tend'to create in the minds of the ianorant .and. unwary. The attacks in the Paper to which we allude, on the eharaaer 21:0 C. ,, 3dWq ')t the Marqnia Cesler and his brother, flay, for augia we Know, t the . \Vhiggism of the present day. Certain wc,' are, however,,shat it is not that of a Hampden, a So mers, or a Junius, but seems rather to have Izeen diaated by levelling malignity. I am, Sir, - With great respea, Your obedient Seryant, Allsopyßus. " On the 21st of SeptMiber, 1803, Colonel Ste.. venson formed a junCtioe with General Wellesley, at Badnapoor, when it was resolved that they should again separate littd . Gil; divisions, and advance to wards. the enemy rby different routes. This plan appeared to afford the best means of forcing the Confederates" to a general aolion, which 111ey skewed so strong a disposition to avoid. -Accordingly the two divisions marched on the 22d : Colonel Steven son took the Western, and General Wellesley the Eastern route, round the Wills between Badnapoor and Jalna. General Wellesley reached Nanhfair on the 23d, where informatioe was received 'of the combined armies being encamped ah v ont six miles from the grannd w hi'h it was his intention to oc cupy. With it decisice v and heroic intrepidity which few have equalled, he' at once determined to attack them, without waiting the arrival of ColOnel Ste venson's dMsion. But this measure, though it could alone have been undertaken by a gallant and daunt less mind, was, nevertheless, founded in the most perfect prudence, and recommended .by that provi dent sagacity which materially contributd to its suc cess. General Wellesley foresaw, that if he waited for,the junaion of Colonel Stevenson's division, the Confederates would receive intelligence of its ap proach, and would, therefore, in conformity with the defensive system on which they awed, \ 4 4 , ithdraw their guns and infantry in the course of the night, in order to avoid the combined attack of the British forces : whereas, by boldly attacking them-with his own diVision, the. smallness of .his force, and their consequent hopes of defeating it, would tempt them to engage him. He accordingly moved forward to wards the enemy, whom he found encamped be tween and along the course of the rivers Kaitna and Juah, contiguoes to the point of their confluence.. The enemy's line extended East and West along the North bank of the river Kaitna, which is high and rocky, and impassable.for guns, excepting at a few places, close,:so 419 . eillages. The right wing of the enemy, which was entirely composed of cavalry, was posted in the vicinity of Bokerdun, and extend ed to their line of infantry, which was covered by the fortified village of Assye; " The English army had marched 14 miles to Naulnair ; and it being six miles from that'place to Assye, it was one o'clock in the afternoon before it came in sight of the enemy. General Wellesley's approach was in front of the enemy's. right, but he judiciously resolved to attack their left, where die pins and infayaryewere posted. Accordingly, he moved round to theteleitilank, covering his column of infantry by the BritiShi cavalry in the rear,-and by the Peishwah's and Mysore hoise on the -Tight flank. Having' passed the river Kaitna at a ford beyond the enemy's left flank, General Wellesley formed the infantry into two lines, with the British cavalry as a reserve in a third line, in an open space between the Kaitna and Juah rivers, where they run nearly' pa rallel. The Peishwah's and Mysore cavalry occu pied the ground to- the Southward of the Kaitna, on the left flank of the British army, and kept in chec% a large body of the enemy's cavalry, which .had 'foi -1 lowed its movement from the 'right of their own position. " The British army consisted of 4500 men, of ! whom 1800 were Europeans ; the forces of the Confederates, actually on the . field of battle; amount ; ed to upwards of 30,000 men ; but superior skill, judgment, discipline,• and intrepidity, were on the side of the English ; and these important advan tages more than counterbalanced the inferiority of their number. " The enemy had commenced a distant cannon ade, when they discovered General Wellesley's in tention to attack their*t, upon which they changed the disposition of thtie l infantry and guns from the line along the'NoaThqbank of the Kaitna, and ex tended them from that river to the village of Assye, on the Juah river, which was on the right of the British army. At right angles to the rear of the enemy's first line, a second line was formed, with its left • towards Assye, and its rear to the Juah river, along the bank of which it extended in a Westerly direCtion. In. this position the enemy was attacked by the English troops, who advanced with unshaken steadiness under a heavy and galling fire, from a numerous -and wellserved artillery. The English artiller t v the the same time, opened a Mire on the e!tegw,al,4;i„distance of 400 yards; but perceiving that it, pto4tKe4 little effea on their ex ensive line of infantty, and finding that the field "pieces could not advance, owing to the number of :nen and bullocks winch had been disabled, Gene
